Impetigo Treatment in New York and New Jersey

Skin Laser & Surgery Specialists of New York and New Jersey offer treatment for impetigo to the residents of New York and New Jersey.

What is Impetigo?

Impetigo is a very contagious skin condition that typically affects children and infants. The condition normally appears on the face as red sores around the nose and mouth. The sores may also ooze and develop light gold crusts. Because the condition is contagious, treatment is typically recommended to shorten the course of the condition and minimize the risk of spreading to others.

What Causes Impetigo?

Impetigo is caused by the spreading of a particular bacterium, known as Staphylococcus aureus, from person-to-person. The bacterium is able to remain active in clothing, bed sheets, towels, toys and other objects.

How Do I Know If I Have Impetigo?

Although most common in children and infants, impetigo can affect people of all ages. The sores most often appear around the nose and mouth but may also be present on other parts of the body. After the red sores develop, they soon rupture and ooze, then a brownish-yellow crust forms over the open sore. A less common type of impetigo is bullous impetigo that causes large blisters on the torso or diaper area. The extreme type of impetigo is ecthyma develops deep in the skin, creating tender sores that are filled with fluid or puss and may develop into ulcers if left untreated.
